Is it possible to set a variable as the value of a combobox?

Specifically, I would just to like to do something like this:
Code:
Set X = Me.ComboBox1.Value
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(X)

Where X is the value of a combobox selection made previously on the same userform.

Of course, this doesn't work, so any tips would be greatly appreciated!
 

Excel Facts

Enter current date or time
Ctrl+: enters current time. Ctrl+; enters current date. Use Ctrl+: Ctrl+; Enter for current date & time.
You only use Set with Object variables, whereas X here is a string data type, so it would just be:

Code:
X = Me.ComboBox1.Value

Dont use the word Set in first line

Set is only used with objects
Code:
X = Me.ComboBox1.Value
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(X)
